PlayStation is removingHorizon Zero Dawnfrom itsPlayStation Pluscatalog later this month.
According to the game’s official store page, which was first spotted by aReddituser and later verified byEurogamer, Guerrilla Games' open-world action-adventure game will leavePS Pluson May 21.
This applies to theHorizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition, in particular, which features the game’sFrozen Wildsexpansion, meaning users will have only a few weeks to grab the offer before it is gone for good.
The decision forSonyto remove one of PlayStation’s major headlining games from the subscription service does seem odd, however, the move only reinforces the ongoing rumors that Guerrilla Games is gearing up to announce aPlayStation 5remaster of the 2017 title.
Rumors of a PS5 remaster first began in October 2022 viaVGC, who reported that thecurrent-gen version was in development, alongside a new multiplayer game in the series.
The PS5 remaster is said to include improved visuals and feature overhauled textures, improved animations, and higher-fidelity character models, as well as more accessibility options, performance upgrades, and quality-of-life improvements - much like its 2022 sequelHorizon: Forbidden West.
Although thePS4version ofHorizon Zero Dawncan be played on PS5 with the 60FPS update, the PS5 has yet to see a native version. The game also received aPC launchin 2020 and was the first major PlayStation exclusive to make the jump.
